What's Next for Machine Repairs at FloorBase?

After 24 years of brilliant service, our in-house machine repair expert, Andy, is hanging up his tool belt and heading off into retirement.
Andy has been part of the fabric for more than two decades, one of our longest-serving team members, he quickly became the go-to person for anything and everything to do with flooring machines. From troubleshooting problems, sourcing hard-to-find parts, and repairing equipment, to simply being a friendly and familiar face at our Preston trade counter, he’s made a lasting impact on both the team and our customers.

Always willing to lend a hand, Andy's knowledge, humour and hands-on attitude have been appreciated by all who have worked with him. Andy's last day with us will be Friday 13th June 2025, and we're sure you'll join us in wishing him all the best for a well-earned retirement, with plenty more time for golf and DIY projects ahead of him.
What This Means for Machine Repairs
With Andy moving on, we want to let you know that we will no longer be offering in-house machine repairs or servicing.
But don’t worry, we’ve always got you covered!
